WTH!?! I'm having major problems giving my $$$ away to someone to make me some custom outfits for DD!!! The woman I've used in the past hasn't responded to FB messages or wall posts - I don't know if she's just too busy or what. then I found someone on Ebay and I LOVED her fabrics, so I messaged her telling I'd be interested in ordering several in a slightly different style (i didn't want full long dresses but more long tops to wear with bike shorts/leggings) and never heard back from her either! Posted on the Boutique thread asking people to message me if they were interested in making some and only heard from 2 people, but they don't seem to make what I'm interested in. I LOVE the stuff of the woman I used before and can't seem to find anyone who makes the same sort of stuff.

Yup, good old WMUR.

My DH thinks these bracelets are going to be awesome, and are going to lead to more relaxation because now we'll be able to get FP's for later in the day and not having to hit the parks early (we are NOT early risers on vacation), so now, even if we sleep in, we will still have our fastpasses....good point...

Just noticed you are checking in the same day as we are. You driving from here or flying? We are driving for the first time. Cross fingers.

Flying....there is no way our little princesses (or us, lets be honest) would make it through a 24 hour drive...we think driving to Storyland is too long!!!

But, for the first time, we are flying out of Logan, because MHT was just too darn expensive!

I've switched my resort to POR. The dates are the same!

I just noticed that a lot of us are New Englanders! Waves!

Haha, yeah I'm not sure we are going to make it all the way there with all of our marbles. We are taking two overnights on the way down and two on the way up. Hopefully with not too much time in the car at once it will be fine. Hubbys mother lives 10 minutes from Storyland, so nowadays it seems like a trip to the corner store for us.

Good news for all of us that were waiting for the IRS to announce tax return dates. Looks like it was only delayed 10 days!! They officially announced today that returns can be e-filed starting on January 30th. Good news for those of us waiting for refunds to pay Disney. I could have paid my package without it...but need it by the time we leave to take with us.

This is a big relief! I was REALLY wanting this before my final payment, otherwise I would have used a credit card and then *hoped* for the discipline to pay it off once I did receive my return. Thanks for posting!

I'd love too see some things too - all the threads I'm finding are all chatter with hardly any pictures. I've been looking on etsy

we went last april. its def. much warmer than i like. i' d prefer to go feb. vacation but wont deal with the presidents day crowds, so april it will be.

What's the weather like in Feb? I'm braving it this year with some friends during Presidents Day weekend. Crazy, but it was the only time they were free. I'm okay with it because I don't *need* to do anything, since I'll be back for our April trip.

So excitied to start Disney movie days with my kids! I hope to do 1-2 per week! Starting on Friday with Dumbo, going to do some carinval games with them and then have hot dogs, popcorn, and other carinval type foods I can find. Decided on Dumbo first because we already have the hot dogs in the freezer Can't spend too much, have a Disney trip in a few months!

I just got a smartphone so I will have to go look for that app.

what's the name of the app? I'd love to get it!

 

[TJDisneymama]

the one i have is Disney Vacation Countdown (I have an android, no iPhone). There's something weird about getting it on your screen once you download it though. You have to go under Widgets...... I can't remember exactly how I did it but once you download it, if you can find it, that's why - you need to figure out how to get to your Widgets and it will be there.

 

[USAND3KIDS]

Since when has online check in been at 60 days instead of 10???? Thats pretty neat.

 

[TJDisneymama]

have they started that already? I don't get why they would want you to check in so early...... do they give you the actual room #? that would be kind of cool....except then there'd be a million people changing because they're not happy. IDK.... I don't get it.

I don't really understand it either. Can you really check in if you aren't paid in full yet?
